Good news, good news!! Our doctor called just now and said that "they" have chatted about my case and I can participate in the clinical trial! We are so grateful for that - it just seems to give us more options to lick this thing. Yippee!! I will go to Madison next week for a pre-trial CT scan and then go back later in the week for the infusion. All the infusions will take place in Madison as the trial procedures must be monitored closely.

We are trusting that the Lord's hand is in this - we have prayed much for wisdom and open doors. We are just simply trusting His care!

Thank you for your kind words of encouragement during this most discouraging and emotionally overwhelming week. The words of Scripture that you've sent, words to songs and poems, along with your caring "I just don't know what to say" speak volumes of love to us and buoy our spirits. We hope that they have buoyed yours in return.

Love to all,
Don & Deb

  2. Hey, Deb,
    I just want to thank you for "documenting" your journey. It ministers to people in ways you can't possibly realize. We continue to pray. I'll invoke the Romans 8 clause - that the Spirit helps us in our weaknesses because we do not know how we ought to pray. God remains good. Thank you for your steadfastness. None of this is in vain.
